Do you want to claim your screen real estate but do you also want to use the Stock Camera App?
What does this MOD do?
This MOD sizes the Stock Camera App to the entire screen in the supported dpi settings (see supported dpi settings below). The MOD is available for both the stock app and the version modded by amk19 (please thank him, his mod is sweet!).
What's the problem?
If you try to change your device DPI from the default 640dpi to say 540dpi or 480dpi, your camera app will be broken and look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This MOD will make the camera app fit your screen and work properly again!
What doesn't this MOD do?
Anything else. This MOD is solely created to support the camera functionality on DPI's other than stock 640dpi.
Known issues?
The 'Slow- and fast-motion video player and editor' has not yet been addressed. As such you can create slow- and fast-motion captures, but not watch/edit them on your device.
The white borders around the effects options and the preview button that takes you to the gallery are a little too small for their contents.
Supported DPI settings?
540 dpi
520 dpi
480 dpi
Sadly, due to the way the app is set-up, specific versions have to be created for each DPI setting. Is your flavor not available? Please mention your preferred dpi setting in the comments!
On which devices has this MOD been reported to work?
Galaxy S6 Edge International (SM925F)
Galaxy S6 International (SM-G920I)
If you have tested the MOD on an unlisted device and it works, please add a comment so the list can be expanded!
How to install?
Have a rooted phone
Make a backup! (better safe than sorry)
Pick the version of your choosing (see below) and download the corresponding zip file
Extract the apk file from the zip file
Copy the apk file to your phone
You can make a specific backup of all content inside the /system/app/SamsungCamera4/ folder for easy restoration
Using a mobile file browser like root explorer, copy the apk file to /system/app/SamsungCamera4/ and overwrite the existing file
Change permissions of the copied apk file to 0644 (see screenshot below)
remove the arm64 folder if there is any [UNTESTED, please confirm this works]
(Hot)Reboot your phone
Done!
If you want to install the amk19 version, please note that the 'media_profiles.xml' file is not included here. You will have to follow the install instructions provided by amk19 and replace his apk with this one.
Bla bla bla?
I have been really annoyed by the fact that the Camera didn't support much more useful DPI's, and saw an opportunity to do something back to this community, which has helped me and provided ROMs and goodies ever since I switched to android with my Galaxy Nexus. So thank you for that!
I'm providing this MOD as is, without any guarantees. I am not responsible nor liable for any kind of damage resulting from anything related to this post, etc. etc. etc. By using any of these files, you agree to be fully aware of what you're doing and to take full responsibility if anything goes awry.
Versions?
SamsungCamera4_orig_<x> - The Stock Camera App* modified to work with <x>dpi
SamsungCamera4_amk19_<x> - The Stock Camera App as modded by amk19, modified to work with <x>dpi
* The Stock Camera App used is the one included in the current ROM I'm on (XtreStoLite_G92xF-I-T-W8_DeodexedModEdition_v.1.4a_DVU1BOE3, which i really like so far).
Bugs?
Please add a comment or send me a message if you find anything amiss and I will see if and when I can help you out. For me to be able to help you please include the following information:
Which device version do you have?
Which ROM are you on?
Does the app force close or have some other malfunction?
Have you removed the arm64 folder if it was present inside the SamsungCamera4 folder?
Anything else you could mention that might help narrow down the problem?
If you used amk19's version, some additional questions:
Did you have amk19's mod installed before, and did it work?
Did you follow amk19's instructions when installing (specifically in regard to the media_profiles.xml part)?
Have you tried the orig version and did that give the same result?
Screenshots?
The following screenshots are taken on my phone at 540 DPI.
Enjoy!

Hi Lilmikey201,
The MOD solves an issue that occurs when you change the DPI setting of your device to something other than 640dpi (through build.prop editing). When changed to a lower number (for smaller UI elements and thus more room on your screen) the camera app malfunctions (buttons don't work properly anymore) and the app only takes up a part of your screen (see the screenshot I just added to the new "What's the problem?" section of my post).
So if you would want to change your DPI to 540 or 480dpi (I can support other dpi's on request) and still have the stock camera app in working order, you need this MOD.
I hope that answers your questions!
Cheers,
Bane.

in the past i have rooted every phone i have owned however, for some reason i am holding off on this. I have had my Edge replaced 3 times already (due to factory defects each time) and if i root it i fear if something happens again i wont get a new phone.
Thanks SO much for altering DPI on these, this is exactly what I was waiting for. Unfortunately, it doesn't work on the AT&T variant. If at all possible, could you alter this version for 540?

Tried the amk version for 480, on the 925T and it doesn't work.

I see in your zip that you have an arm folder. Haven't had to deal with that situation yet. Could you please try to remove the arm folder as well? If that doesn't work I'll look into creating a specific version for the AT&T device.

Thanks for the suggestion! I moved the APK without the arm folder and I just get an instant FC now - before the app would just open and close with no message.
I'm not sure whats going on.. tried playing with permissions, etc, but still nothing.

I hear there are actually apps for it in the app store (probably by searching dpi, didn't check). I like to do it myself by editing build.prop. In order to do that:
Get a file browser like root explorer in the appstore if you don't have one already.
Navigate to /system/.
Edit the build.prop file (long press on the file and select 'Open in text editor' in root explorer).
Find the first occurrence of 'so.sf.lcd_density=640'.
Change 640 to the density you want.
Save the file and exit (in root explorer this option is in the menu).
Reboot your device.

Related
I've never started a thread here, as I rarely have a unique idea - but this time I've decided to bite the bullet and share my experience.
It has been discussed on these forums about editing the APKs for non-stock apps in order to make the icon match the theme throughout the OS (as opposed to using Bettercut or similar to just change the homescreen icon). It has also been discussed elsewhere, but I can't find the link.
My problem was very similar, yet different, so I figured I'd play around and see what I could come up with.
I use the unbelievably sexy GlossSuite theme by Moonsspoon which uses this cool little icon in the notification bar to alert you to having a new SMS (and maybe MMS, not sure...).
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I also use the app from the market called SMS Popup. If you dont know what it is, check it out - very handy. One of my favorite features of the app is that you can use it for your SMS notifications, and it allows you to set a custom vibe pattern and it will flash the LED the color of your choice - both very helpful to let you know that it's an SMS you're getting instead of a call or whatever...
You need to turn off the native SMS app's notifications when you use this feature of SMS Popup so that you dont get 2 alerts every time you get a message. The drawback to this, while using a theme like GlossSuite, is that the notification icon for messages that SMS Popup uses is the stock icon:
This is only a problem if you're OCD like myself.
I had already gotten the png icon extracted from the GlossSuite theme in hopes that I could just swap it out with the icon inside the SMS Popup apk (if I could find it, that is).
So I decided to crack open the APK for SMS Popup and see if I could find the icon used and what I could do to make it use the icon from the GlossSuite theme.
Inside the APK in the /res/drawable folder there are 2 images: The app's icon, and the icon used in the notification bar. And to make it even easier, the file name was exactly the same as the file used by the GlossSuite theme! Easy enough!
I used 7zip (WinRAR should work just fine too) to:
1. Open the APK
2. Navigate to the /res/drawable folder
3. Delete the stat_notify_sms.png
4. Drag and drop the png I extracted from the theme into it's spot
5. Delete the META-INF folder inside the SMS Popup APK
-- I got this info from the previously mentioned thread about swapping non-stock icons. It is so that when you resign the APK in the next step, the keys don't conflict with what the APK dev has used (or something like that - I admittedly don't know anything about keys and signing and all that jazz)
6. Close your archiving application.
I then used this auto-signing tool posted by "Dave Da illest 1" to resign the APK using the testkeys. It had to be edited slightly to sign APKs instead of ZIP files. If you want to download my edited version of the auto-signing tool, click here.
Uninstalled the previous version of the app, copied the APK over to my SDcard and then used AppManager to install the APK, and now:
(yes, I know there are typos...)
It works!
I'm sure most of your brainiacs here at XDA have figured this out on your own, but I couldnt find any solid information on it so I figured I'd share what little knowledge I had on the subject.
If you want to try this for yourself and want the icon from the GlossSuite theme, it is here.
And if you just happen to have GlossSuite installed and are using SMS Popup and would like my already edited version of the APK, click here.
[DISCLAIMER: If my sharing of this APK goes against any rules of the forum, please excuse my ignorance. If I find out this is the case, and a mod hasn't beat me to the punch, I'll gladly remove this link!]
So - with all that being said, I should clarify that I haven't done any theme creation (although I have edited a few pngs here and there, but nothing major), so obviously this bit of information is probably well below most of you... But if it can help anyone, then yay for my first real contribution to this community.
Awesome find. When I finally settle on a version I think I will sit down and do this for a few Apps. I havent heard anything on it before so as far as I'm concerned your the first!
|Spike|
i am trying to do something very similar- i am trying to install the file below as my status bar icon but when i use your autosign app (and the other auto sign app) i still get a "this cannot be installed on your device" or something similar....
did you have this issue ever?
After resigning with your tool did you then name it back to what is originally was or did you leave the name as to what the autosign converted it to?
fixed. apparently you need to uninstall the app first. wonder how this affects updates of it in the future?

Yeah thanks for pointing this out - I added the "remove old version" step to my information in the original post.
And since the process goes as such, as far as the Market is concerned, the app isn't even installed on the phone, so I would assume that you won't be notified of updates.
And, of course, if you manually notice an update in the Market and install the app from there, you won't have your changes in place... would have to go thru the process again I believe.
That's where aTrackDog comes into play.
Keep all your apps uptodate even if the market doesn't know.

yeah- for sure. now that i have flashed to 5.0G none of my apps show up in my downloads so i stick with atrackdog. i am wondering if an update is found by atrackdog will it be able to be installed over the top of the altered one we have installed....
2. Navigate to the /res/drawable folder
Am I supposed to open the APK on my phone or computer? I can't find this folder.

Its simply just replace the image with your own, resign, install and you're good to go. Heres an example of what you could do.
I made this months ago but didn't think it was anything special so i never said anything. Lighting bolt at the top is the triangle notification.

For non-stock apps, you can use a free app called AppManager to copy non-protected apps to your SD card.
Or, you can just use the terminal emulator
cd data/app
ls
[shows a list of all non-protected apps installed]
cp [filename.apk] /sdcard/[backup folder of your choice]
This same method can be used for protected apps if you can find the correct folder... But I won't provide that info, because I'm sure that's against the rules of these forums.

About ICTU
I C Thru U is a tool for WM6.5.x and Manila2D version 2.0 and lower (not Manila3D - version 2.1-2.5) that automatically crops sections from your wallpaper and sets them as the backgrounds to your taskbar and softkey bars so they appear "transparent". Of course this isn't real transparency but it's the next best thing. It can also do some other tricks like scaling large images to fit, removing the background from the softkey buttons, making all Manila elements on the home tab transparent, etc.
ICTU works with W|QVGA and W|VGA resolutions. Install to your device and run via the "I C Thru U" shortcut. When clicked, you will be asked to select from a menu of options - Backup, Restore, Current Wallpaper and New Wallpaper. I advise you to make a backup before continuing.
Clicking "Current Wallpaper" or "New Wallpaper" will take you to the main selection screen where you can choose which parts to make transparent. Take a look at the screenshot above - it's arranged so you simply click the button for the transparency you want to apply, e.g. the first button makes the start menu transparent, the second makes the taskbar transparent, and so on. If you clicked "New Wallpaper" it will first let you choose a new image then apply the transparency you have selected.
Please note: Because this new version uses a more complex method of resizing and cropping, some operations will take longer than they did in the older version. Sometimes it may appear like nothing is happening, but please do wait for the app to finish. You will be prompted to restart when done, or Manila will auto-refresh.
Have fun! To return to your previous settings either restore your backup or re-select your themes in Settings>Home as well as in M2DC.
Updates:
07.06 - 1.0 Final - Fixed a small error in the backup script, fairly confident everything is running smoothly now. Also included scripts to remove any left-over files and registry entries after uninstalling.
07.06 - 1.0RC - Lots of improvements, stability and added features. Now the app lets you scale/crop large images to fit, automatically syncs the Manila and Today wallpapers, allows for the removal of all Manila backgrounds on the home tab, transparent start menu background, no need to restart after making changes to Manila, etc. Please test.
01.06 - 1.0b5 - After many attempts, the app with gui should new be working.
01.06 - 1.0b4 - Hopefully this will have fixed the startup bug introduced in v1.0b3, please test.
(removed) 31.05 - 1.0b3 - There was a problem with applying transparency twice in succession - that should now be fixed.
Sorry guys, had to remove the previous 1.0 betas, they weren't working on some devices. Will try and solve the problem. In the meantime, try an earlier version.
(removed) 31.05 - 1.0b2 - Please download the new beta - I think it will have fixed the "include" error. Also, the app can now be installed to your memory card and you don't have to have Mortscript installed!! Thanks magawa.
(removed) 31.05 - 1.0b1 - MAJOR UPDATE: The app now has a GUI of sorts.
30.05 - 0.9 and earlier - Test builds
For the resizing and conversion this script uses ImgResize.exe by Andrew Coates, the interface uses cimg.exe by Cyclonezephyrxz7 and JMLMenu by JMHL/MichelDiamond. Thanks guys!
Known Issues:
1. There is a known issue with resizing certain images. Sometimes the app reports an Out of Memory Error - this is caused when the image is too big, or there is some other internal error. This occurs only with certain images and I am trying to solve it.
2. The piece of wallpaper for the top bar is actually a duplication of the part just below it, so it will appear like the wallpaper is repeated at the top - this is a limitation of WinMo I'm afraid (well, at least it is in 6.5.3), because the wallpaper actually only starts 18/36 pixels from the top of the screen. Hope that makes sense.
3. Sometimes the Manila slider and button don't look so good when transparent, because without the button you can see through to the icon below - this isn't always a problem but sometimes it doesn't look good. Solve this by leaving the slider and button untouched, or only make the slider transparent. Play around and see what works for you.
4. If you have an issue with your start menu going screwy (this sometimes happens after changing themes in Settings > Home) try re-selecting your wallpaper in ICTU.
5. This was tested on an Omnia using WM 6.5.3 - things may work differently for other builds and resolutions. I take no responsibility for damage to your unit.
Planned:
- Save layout as a single skin file so you can have multiple saves, and you can share skins with others!
- Multiple backup/restore slots

Great that it's working on your device.
Regarding the todaypage issue, I did try to overwrite hh_fw_background.png using Mortscript but it's completely locked (even with attribs set to FALSE). If you know of a way to unlock it then I'd love to know.
The answer is to set your Manila wallpaper to "\Windows\stwater_yourwidth_yourheight.png" - unless there's some other way to set it automatically and refresh Manila...
Please find attached the icons!

Of course you can use the app in your roms, no problem. I only changed some small things in 0.7 - removed the countdown in "I C Thru U.mscr" and updated the version number.
I'm not sure what you mean by "the EXE will not be with the source files OK ?!" Can you please re-word?
I will definitely mention you!

@ all - Version 0.7 .exe uploaded to the first post. Now it installs and runs like any other app, with its own icon.
Thanks to magawa for all the help.
UPDATE: The versions in this post are obsolete (but can still be used of course). I've opened a new thread with a new version that supports more firmware versions and mods here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8973385

SGS Battery Icon Mod
(Update Fixed root checking r/w bug... Enlarged the font of percentage numbers in theme 1 - version 1 )
EDIT: Although I made this app as save as possible, **** can always happen. Of course, a nadroid backup is adviced as always But... there's another method to get you out of trouble, when you have booting problems. Look for it at the end of this post. (For this to work it is essential that you have turned on USB Debugging is the settings-application menu)
----
I decided to create a (Android) app to change the battery icon for the new Froyo versions (JPM and JP6). The app is based on the knowledge and work collected in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=765419 (maintained by kalpik).
I have three versions to offer
a version with several themes to choose from (Only for JP6 Froyo Firmware). Current, there are only 3 themes but I will add themes in the future (have to create a client server construction first. 3 themes is the limit as far as the size of the app is concerned).
A version with just one theme for JP6 (added this because this one is "only" 7 Mb, while the first one is 22 Mb ).
And a version for JPM and JP6 with only one theme
** JP6 Version: 3 themes
Credits
First theme is by yours truly. Just the standard Froyo battery icon with a percentage in it (the battery status bar will jump with discontinuous steps of 20 - like the default froyo battery icon)
Second theme is by Fightspit
Third theme is by rom-g
Requirements
* JP6 Froyo version
* Root with r/w access (A SuperOneClick root will do because the app requires no busybox)
Installation
A) Dowload link (apk file, 22 Mb): http://www.4shared.com/file/tvTun0q9/SGS_Battery_Icon_Mod_-_Pro_2.html
(Two themed version: first two themes (apk file, 14mb): http://www.4shared.com/file/xXvZm6iD/SGS_Battery_Icon_Mod_-_Pro.html
B) A donation version of the most up to date version (€0.50) is available on the Android Market - Search for "Galaxy S Battery Icon Pro" or any creative combination of these words)
** JP6 version: 1 theme (C version from the battery mod repository thread)
Requirements
* JP6 Froyo version
* Root with r/w access (A SuperOneClick root will do because the app requires no busybox)
Installation
À) Get it from the Android Market - free (search for Galaxy S Battery Icon Mod - or any combination of these words), or
B) Download the attached SGS Battery Icon Mod.apk to your phone and click on it to install.
** JPM & JP6 version
Requirements
* JPM or JP6 Froyo version
* Root (A SuperOneClick root will do because the app requires no busybox)
* I tested only the JP6 version on my SGS i9000 so a bit of luck is also needed for the other version
Installation
Download the attached Battery_Mod.7z. Unzip the file and copy the unzipped apk file to your device. Click to install
A recovery procedure (from the battery mod repository thread)
A prerequisite is that you have USB Debugging turned on before you got into trouble. So if you read this before you are going to use the tool, now it's a good time to turn on USB Debugging under Settings->Applications
First download this file. That's the file (framework-res.apk) we are going to restore.
Then download this tool: http://www.mediafire.com/?wuzy9iss3k43v4h
Then follow these descriptions:
kalpik said:
Extract the tool.
Extract framework-res.apk from the downloaded file and copy it into the extracted tool dir.
Run Change Framework.bat
Accept the Superuser Permission prompt on the phone.
The script will reboot when it's done
Minor bug... You will need to set your wallpaper and google accounts again

I guess what it does is just to switch the framework file?
Great work! Thanks
jp6 version worked for me
Way cool!
Maybe you could have split the two versions (because of size), or better (?): let people download their desired mod and dump it in your application's map on the sd? This would reduce the size of your application drastically (and offer genormous flexibility). Just meant as a suggestion...
Is it possible to download this application on the sgs directly? (i.e. is there a "7z" decompression application on the sgs?)

Yep! Maybe I'll dump a bunch of framework files on a site somewhere so the app can download a framework-res file on the demand.

Yep thought of that also. I first wanted to see if such an app is needed and which battery mod version people prefer. If there are a lot of different preferences I maybe create a download-on-demand app. If there are just a few I'll split the app in several apps (don't like the idea to maintain those apps though )

Funny to talk to Dutch speaking people in English...
You could make it a "dumb" application where people do the downloading of the mod themselves, and if easily technically feasible somehow, check if the file matches the current firmware. The question then would be: is there something in the framework-res.apk itself to identify the firmware? If so, your application doesn't need too many updates.
edit: ah, there maybe could be some identifying thing, if you match it with the current one..
edit 2: since this is a battery mod application only you could check if the rest of the file remains the same as the current one. If some other mod is already present in the current framework-res.apk a user might not even want to apply it, so you could make this application really stern and static and (if necessary) add flexibility later on.

I have uploaded a new version only for JP6. This is an apk file that can be downloaded directly to a device.
In this version I check a build property and see if it contains the string "JP6"... If not the app will be closed. (I also assume that only Samsung Galaxy S devices have a build version that contains the string "JP6"... Maybe a bit too pragmatic)
Users can always revert to the old setting by clicking on Restore. It should be noticed that the settings that will be backed up (for informed users the framework-res.apk) are the settings before applying the battery icon modification.
BTW the framework-res.apk will be backed up to /sdcard (in case you have your own backup there.... please move it)
I'm not sure how this is easier than just downloading the zip and flashing through recovery, and if it's really worth the effort to maintain such an app! But if the people want it, they get it!
That's the power of open source

And.. with your method users have much more choices.. I only offer the C version
But I think that the direct downloadable apk version is easier. (No hassle of installing 2e recovery, uploading zip, going into recovery mode etc. etc.)
But to make sure: the credits go to you for preparing the res file(s)! I only "app-ed" it up.
I'm not sure if it's of any interest to you but I sat down last night and added colour to dani31's stock battery mod, I've attached the pngs below.
Sadly I don't posses the necessary black magic skills to put them into a flashable form

This is buggy as hell. I installed it on my JPM SGS, and it rebooted. But then it messed up some of the text, like the unlock screen says "Sending..." instead of "Sweep to unlock". I went to restore it, and now the app just closes because I "don't seem to have a Samsung Galaxy S with a JP6 FROYO version". I can't hit the restore button! Please fix.

Lol, why are you installing the JP6 version on a JPM version.... I've uploaded this app to the market, gave it the title "galaxy S battery mod", wrote in a description that it's only for the Samsung Galaxy S (several times) and I got comment that it crashes on a HTC EVO ...
But you're right there's something wrong with the test procedure. It doesn't run the first time but it does run the second and following times. Will certainly fix this. For now just copy the framework-res.apk file on your sdcard back to your /system/framework directory
I'm going to write a app to check how well one can read. I upload a app to the market that crashes the device and in the description i'm going to write don't download this app it will crash your device. To make it easy I'm going to give it the title Crashes your device - without exceptions. Let's see what the comments are LOL
Ah, didn't realize you made two different versions, my bad
Great, worked without problems on JP6 installed by KIES

Can you run it again, just to check if you pass the test ? Just fire it up. You don't have to change anything.
IT works like a charm on JP6 via KIES.
Thanks bro
First off I need to give credit where credit is due. Fisha21 blazed the trail with the first themed Uruk framework and did the hardwork of figuring out the steps to make it happen. Secondly, the themed pieces in this framework came mostly from JRummy16's blueberry LithiumMod so I claim absolutely no credit for that. There are other pieces picked up here and there, but I apologize for not knowing where they all came from.
This is mostly a complete work, but there is always room for improvement so I don't want to call it a 1.0. See the screenshots below for a small sample of what has been done, but there are many other tweaked images (something like 200-ish).
This is my first release to the public - normally I'd tweak things for my own personal use and never spread it around, but since there isn't a huge theme library for the Archos I thought I'd share for anybody that's interested. Constructive criticism is appreciated; if you find something that needs fixing please let me know and I can adjust it. I in no way think this work is perfect, but it's not too shabby in my opinion.

This will work on Uruk running off the SD or from the internal storage. Follow Fisha21's install steps:
"How to install
Needless to say, only attempt this if you are comfortable modifying system files. As we are using the SDE for this, the potential risk of bricking/ irreversible damage is low, but you should still have some idea what you're doing!
Just to clarify, I am using this on an UrukDroid 0.5 rooted Archos 101. I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work on any previous UrukDroid version, or other device sizes, but I haven't tested on any other configuration.
I know there are other (semi-permanent) root methods out there, and I know some people have UrukDroid running from their internal SD. I don't know how/if this will work with those setups, and I can't offer any advice/help for anyone wanting to try it in those setups. PROCEED CAREFULLY if you decide to try!
There are probably lots of other (neater) ways of doing this but this is the way I've found to work consistently for me.
All file manipulation on the device was done with Root Explorer.
1. Unzip the attached [bluep0rkframework-res.zip] to your SD card (the largest partition). Can be done directly on device, or over USB.
2. Find your original framework-res.apk (/system/framework) and back it up. I stored the backup in /system/framework.old, but its up to you - keep it safe! I would suggest keeping a copy on your computer also - you'll see why later!
3. Navigate to where you saved the new framework-res.apk, and change permissions to those shown in the screenshot below. I used the Root Explorer context menu, but those who prefer terminal commands, thats chmod 644.
4. Now MOVE (not copy) that .apk into the /system/framework folder. It will ask if you want to replace the existing file, just hit ok.
[p0rk burn: I'm not sure if my files will change color like Fisha's, but once you move it into the folder it should sit there for a while in RootExplorer - you will be able to scroll up and down but using the home key or any other buttons will not do anything - that means the new framework is loading, The rest of the setup should be like Fisha21 described: the screen will go black after a few minutes and sit for a little bit, before the homescreen loads back up.]
Now reboot the system.
The black screen after the UrukDroid screen may last a minute longer than normal, but just be patient. When it all comes back, you should see your new notification icons!
Once again, only do this if you are comfortable with editing system files. Though the risk of bricking is low, I can't offer any help if you do manage to kill your Archos!"

I had problems installing my own framework after updating to Uruk 0.6, which is also based in part on 2.1.04. Not sure if there was some change in the other contents of framework-res in the newer firmwares, but when I installed mine, I got into this loop where the soft buttons would appear on a black screen for a few seconds, disappear then reappear again. Is that what you experienced? I fixed mine by repacking my custom icons into a new framework-res extracted from the newest firmware.
Would you try installing my latest version from the theme forum, and see if that will work on your setup? I have also found a (hopefully) easier method, but it does require ADB.
Just to be clear, I'm not trying to hijack p0rn burn's thread or encourage people to use my framework over his. It would just be interesting to see if changing the base framework-res did make a difference, or if I unknowingly did something else to fix things. I have PM'd p0rk burn about my findings as well, so hopefully we can get both versions working!
The more help the better. Ill try to get a new framework up on monday for the new fw. Im on uruk .6 now so i need it too.
As promised, I have uploaded the blue themed framework for Uruk .6. It is attached to the first post for those of you that are interested. Please make sure you use the proper one, otherwise you will have to fix it before being able to boot back into Uruk.
This one has the modified progress_horizontal.xml so the volume bar and other progress indicators are properly themed.
If I feel motivated (or think people would actually care) I'll see about tweaking this a bit more and/or doing some more ports.

I'll try the widgets on my end but I haven't had any of those issues. My guess is it has to do with the zImage because I don't think changing out .pngs would cause those issues, but definitely something worth looking at.

you know, the blue market hack would fit perfectly to your theme ;-)
I know, I thought about throwing it in when I first started this but wanted to get a proof of concept first and then sort of forgot about it. With all the problems people have had with market installs on Uruk I was a little afraid to mess with it.
I'll see what I can do though.

hehe, i have the blue market (vs 2.3.3 from the xda thread) on the archos 101 now
i like the blue and its working
gonna see if it the blue and transparent market works too
Once again Fisha21 came through for the scene. If you want the blue market follow these steps. Should work with the other 2.3.3 markets, but I can't vouch for it personally. On the other hand, if you reached this point in tweaking your Archos fixing a botched vending mod probably doesn't scare you.

I just use Root Explorer to drop the modified Vending.apk into the /system/app folder (extract the apk from the zip installer file)
Can also confirm the blue neon/black market works well - and looks awesome! (A101, Uruk 0.7)

Query
Thanx bro...keep it coming...
Just some questions though....they might seem a bit irrelevant...but i m a starter here...so...
1. If we wanna build a theme ourselves then how do we take out the framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk files from the device?
2. Will the process be similar in KPE and VillianROM?
3. And how the hell do u take those screenshots of ur phone
Actually i m currently running KPE (unrooted) but will shift to VillianROM in a day or two, so just wanna increase my knowledge here.
Thanx in advance.

1. If we wanna build a theme ourselves then how do we take out the framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk files from the device?
2. Will the process be similar in KPE and VillianROM?
3. And how the hell do u take those screenshots of ur phone

1. Yes, you can use framework-res.apk & SystemUI.apk from your device or grab it from here and modify them..
2. The process is more than similar if you do that manually
3. How the hell you don't know it.. lol [Hold Back Button + Home]
U're welcome
thanks again the hope the battery percentage is fixed as well.
Keep it coming !!

While using some apps, it isn't possible to use that inbuilt technique as they quickly return back. In that case use Screenshot Capture Shortcut app, which doesn't even require rooting =) Enable Capture from notification option in it.

I DONT RECOMMEND THAT APP. "Screenshot Capture Shortcut". Or use it with utmost knowledge. It will kill your phone. I experienced frequent shutdown on my phone after i installed it (BEFORE). I tried to uninstall all my recent installed apps. but still my phone keeps on shutting down without me knowing. So i uninstalled "Screenshot Capture Shortcut" and my problem solved.
I know some workaround but it is a bit tiring. YOU NEED TO TURN OFF THE SERVICE (Screenshot Capture Shortcut) AFTER YOU TOOK THE SCREEN SHOOT. DO NOT LEAVE IT THERE IN THE NOTIFICATION. ELSE YOUR PHONE WILL SHUTDOWN WITHOUT NOTICE.
Beside, You dont have a problem with ROOT because villainROM1.0 is PRE-ROoted. you can install many screen capture apps (ROOTED OR UNROOTED REQUIRED)..
Only thing I noticed is that these Screen capture Apps in market wont work in GB. It will capture WRONG COLORS (INVERTED i guess).
Just take a try and you'll know what I mean.

Hold home button first, then quickly press back and capture
to take those file you can use root explorer, and go into /system/framework and /system/app (little forget bout this one)
minimal.zip is just image packed in zip, to use them you need to extract it and use as app icon in yout launcher

hmm but it would be great if u can tell me the changelog...
seilent can u give me the tutorial for custom theme as i cannot understand the one on kaskus
Changelog will b posted along the theme later
About tutorial basically you just need to decompile > modify > build..
But I'll post it when I have free time (porting theme is easier than making tutorial )
Indonesia has many language. Even the official language itself have many variation. So google translate won't work

Hmm.. I haven't really experienced that problem.
However I've tried ShootMe on my Froyo and I used to get those inverted colors, lol.
